The Beta Tests - Giant Trance X Advanced Pro 29 0

Apr 2021 · Michael Ferrentino

The “better mousetrap” theory is tested in the Trance X 29. Spry handling and burly intent meet a mess of ones and zeros in FOX Live Valve

Highs
  • Fun, lively handling

  • Top shelf componentry

  • Live Valve adds versatility to otherwise burly intent

Lows

  • Live Valve needs further refinement to really shine

  • It ain’t cheap
